Ingredients

2 (10 oz) cans minced clams, liquid removed and set aside

4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced

1 cup celery, minced

1 cup onion, chopped

1 quart half-and-half cream

3/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp white sugar

3/4 cup melted butter

3 garlic cloves

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

Directions

Combine onion, garlic and enough water to form a smooth paste in a blender. Place aside.

In a large pot, mix together the onion mixture, potatoes, celery, salt, pepper, and reserved juice from the clams. Add enough water to cover then bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and continue to simmer until potatoes are soft, about 20 minutes.

Add in half-and-half and sugar. Mix together the flour and melted butter then stir into soup. Cook and stir until the soup thickens. Add in the clams and adjust seasonings to taste.

This was absolutely delicious. Very traditional and very much so reminded me of my trip to the North East last winter. Just what clam chowder should taste like. Thanks Pamela!

I'm so glad I found this recipe. Most recipes have salt pork or bacon which my husband doesn't eat. I'm going to make this for him tomorrow.
